I actually kind of like the “Ammosexual” thing liberal bloggers are starting to mock gun enthusiasts with. Not because like “yeah, suck it, stupid gun nuts” - I’m a (life) member of the NRA and OFF - but because it’s cute and clever and I appreciate good wordplay.
(Likewise, I found that MoveOn “Betrayus” ad incredibly offensive, not because I’m A Patriot and Honor and Respect or any shit like that but because I’m a humorist and “mocking name rhymes” are the lowest form of comedy)
That said, if for coalitional reasons alone, “Hey, let’s laugh at those guys! They’re like gays! And girls!” is a damn peculiar meme for liberals to start running with.
(Plus seriously, if they ever made it stick the insult would get “reclaimed” and embraced in like, 6 months tops.)
